If they become overwhelming, admins can defed same as anywhere else. But whats the argument for doing so preemptively?
I'm fairly new to the fediverse, but I see it this way. If Threads integrates with the Fediverse then users will become accustomed to the content from Threads, which could cause more friction in the future if there's a movement to defederate from Threads. I think it would just be easier to avoid all that in the first place. I also feel like if anyone really wants to see Threads content they could make an account there, and then everyone gets what they want. Then there's all the downsides others are theorizing could happen, but they can't be comfirmed until Threads actually joins the Fediverse.
You say this as if people haven't been eloquently arguing for defederating from Threads preemptively since motherfucking APRIL.
No haha I know I just have yet to hear why it would help
Your inability to read (or possibly think, not sure which) is a you problem, not a me problem.
